The villain's goal is to save the heroine

And if we put aside these priests, who else can we expect? It's the "intellectuals" who are responsible for managing and operating the current situation...

"Teacher Justu!"

After passing through a group of outsiders, Lynn finally saw a familiar face he could talk to.

This old friend was talking to a few communication guards. He turned his head when he heard Lin En's voice. After recognizing him and the three people behind him, a look of joy appeared on his face:

"Oh! Teacher Lin! And... Vivian, Miss Cecilia, Miss Eunice! I'm so glad you're all okay! I didn't see you at the last day of the sword trial festival, so I guessed you might have encountered some problems... What exactly happened?!"

"I also want to know what the current situation is, but before that, let them heal first!"

Chapter 375 Using Claire

After arranging the three women, Lynn and Justu quickly exchanged information with each other.

Of course, although it was called an exchange of information, Lin En actually had nothing to provide.

Lin En had to keep Mu Lin's affairs secret, and it was hard to talk about the fragments of Lavinica's memories. As for relying on Eunice's body to restore magic power...

Is he an idiot, would he say this?

So, there are actually only two things that Lin En can say.

One of them is naturally about the fact that Hermann is a priest of the Witch Cult.

If this information had been released before the incident, it would have been extremely important. If Mandel and the church had known about this in advance, the outcome would not have been as disastrous as it is now.

Unfortunately, the shelf life has passed and it is too late to say this now.

As for the second thing, it is about the existence of a mysterious barrier in the air.

Yes, this is important too!

According to Justo, the situation escalated almost immediately after Eunice was captured by Lavinica.

Mandel took the initiative, forcing Lavinica's true form to appear. Lavinica tried to escape, but the Archbishop had already prepared a magic removal circle, and she became increasingly frustrated.

During the scuffle, Regu suddenly appeared and successfully attacked Lavinica, which completely enraged the madman, and the two sides started a fierce battle!

Of course, they definitely won in the end, otherwise the situation wouldn't have been so easy.

But the price was that Seaberg was seriously injured, and Regu's life and death were unknown. Mandel forcibly opened Siena's "Guard Barrier", and eventually his magic power was exhausted and he fell into a coma.

This is a tragic situation that has never appeared in the game!

Moreover, although they did win, the win was not big.

Lavinica was only defeated, not killed. The black rain continued to fall, and the ghostly hands continued to rise and fall. Lavinica's situation was certainly dangerous, but it wasn't completely ruined. They had to pull the priest out of Siena once more.

On this basis, the existence of a barrier in the sky is particularly important.

Since Lavinica is fleeing, wouldn't it be the best option for her to hide in a barrier where she can't be easily discovered?

Of course, this sounds reasonable, but Lin En thinks it is unlikely.

The fact is, if Lavinica had returned to the heavenly barrier, it would have been impossible for them to escape back so easily.

Even if they failed to come back, the "Dead Soul Fire" and the Ghost Hand fell from the sky. In order to solve this problem, someone would definitely think of and solve it in the end. Lavinica hiding in the barrier was just waiting to die!

"Um, Captain Mona... should everything be okay?"

Lin En knew the general idea of ​​the matter, but not the details. As the saying goes, with great ability comes great responsibility. The foolish woman was his, and Lin En didn't want anything to happen to her.

"Oh! Captain Mona, there's nothing wrong with her. Rather, it's a good thing she's here, otherwise the situation might become very bad. She is the only one who can completely ignore the actions of the 'Dead Soul Fire'. She is the one who solves those blind spots that the Holy Light can't reach. Otherwise, once the 'Dead Soul Fire' spreads, we will inevitably suffer a heavier blow." Justu praised sincerely.

This was something Lynn had never expected.

Although he knew that Mona was not a useless woman, the incident in the "Forest of the Sacred Trees" had indeed had a profound impact on him. He always thought that he could just perform mediocrely, but he didn't expect that she would have achieved such a great feat now...!

"Disqualified Ritual"!

If that move is used, "Dead Soul Fire" will indeed be ineffective.

"Where is she? I have something to talk to her about."

Ever since meeting Mulin, Lin En has begun to be wary of Mandel. If Mandel is not a good person, then isn't Justu's position also questionable?

As expected, the loyal Mona is more reassuring.

嗏

"Captain Mona has just taken an elite team to deal with the giant ghost hand that appeared in the West City. I heard that the thing is now more than ten meters long, and there is a headless knight lurking in the middle. We suspect that the priests of the Witch Cult are hiding nearby, so we plan to eliminate it as soon as possible." Justo explained.

This made Lin En stunned again.

A ghost hand over ten meters long?

And the Headless Horseman is here too?

Not to mention, after excluding the leaders of the three forces, such combat power is indeed at the ceiling level. The possibility of Lavinica hiding in it is much greater than that of the empty barrier in the air!

but…

"Who are the members of the elite team?" Lin En asked again.

He wasn't interested in any elite squads, only in Lavinica. According to the "Villain's Diary," in order to learn more about this world, he had to meet that woman.

"What's wrong?" Justo finally felt a little confused.

Yes, Lynn did give people the feeling that he knew something but didn't say it, as if he had ulterior motives.

Lin En casually waved his hands: "No, it's nothing... Although my current condition is not very good, I have a basic level after all. If your combat power is not enough, I can try my best to support you."

"I see..." Justu nodded, praising him. "As expected of Instructor Lin, I didn't expect him to be ready to plunge into a new battle right after escaping from such a barrier... But don't worry, Captain Mona is accompanied by the Stigmata Knight Frank, our academy's Grand Mage Conrad, and Saint Latia. With this lineup, there's absolutely no problem."

"That's it..."

Frank is the man who teased Shinno before. If he is from the "Knights of the Stigmata", he starts at level 61.

As for Conrad, he is the magic consultant of the Holy City Academy. If I remember correctly, he should be a member of the Magic Association, and his level starts at level 71.

Not to mention Latia, whose "holy power" even exceeds that of Seaberg. If we ignore the factor of magic strength, the damage she can cause to undead creatures can even be higher than that of the archbishop!

This lineup will certainly have no problem defeating the Giant Hand and the Headless Horseman, but the important thing is...

How could Lavinica exist in a place like that without that person?

"Didn't Claire go?" Lynn continued to ask.

"Claire?"

"It feels like it would be a loss not to have him with the elite team."

"No, no, although I'm also optimistic about Claire, his current level is still low... I mean, he and Glenn from the Adventurer's Guild have each brought their own companions to deal with the ghost hands in the city. This can be considered a victory or defeat outside of the Sword Trial Festival, hehe..."

To put it bluntly, they're using the competitive spirit of young people to solve problems. Isn't this just bullshit?!

"Well, I'll go keep an eye on them to avoid any accidents... Which direction did they go?"

"That's fine. They must have gone to the upper city first. It should be easy to find them."

"I see!"

Chapter 376 Eunice: Can Nicole withstand it?

Since Lavinica will definitely die in the game, and will 100% die at Claire's hands, so if we take the inertia of the plot into consideration, then there is a high probability that Claire will find the other party in the end!

Obviously, the barrier in the sky and the pile of monsters in the west city are just smokescreens from Ravinica!

Time is on her side!

Whether it's the 'magic removal circle' on the ground or the 'guard barrier' in the city, the longer it takes, the greater the consumption, and sooner or later they will be crushed!

Yes, although they won the home game, Siena is still under great pressure!

This makes sense.

As the male protagonist, although Claire's level is not high enough to participate in the war, he will definitely perform well and make great contributions in this incident!

Otherwise, wouldn’t the protagonist just be a supporting role?

So, finding Claire is almost equivalent to finding Lavinica!

But Lynn was in no hurry to leave.

Although this may not be a good thing, at this point, his obsession with Cecilia and the little loli is getting deeper and deeper. If he doesn't take a look at their conditions first, he will not feel at ease!

only…

"..."

Lin En walked into the makeshift wooden house and saw the...

Nicole!

A loose white robe, an exquisite and beautiful face, a holy aura, and fluttering light pink hair, a beautiful girl of the heroine's level appeared before her eyes.

Obviously, after Seaberg was seriously injured and Latia set out to fight the Headless Horseman, Nicole became the person with the strongest "holy power" in the church!

She was still young, so her magical power was definitely limited. Therefore, it was impossible for her to handle everyone. Only people like Eunice and Cecilia, who had both status and background and were geniuses themselves, were qualified to receive priority treatment when there was a shortage of clergy.

When Lynn arrived, Eunice's healing had just finished, and...

"Hmph! Well done, little one! I underestimated you. I didn't expect you to be so capable... Hey, tell me your name. In recognition of your healing, I, Eunice Zacharias, allow you to introduce yourself to me!" The little Loli said proudly to the little one she was talking about.

Although Lin En didn't know what she was so proud of, she could tell that the little girl must be somewhat interested in Nicole. However, she seemed to have no idea of ​​her own temper. Those who knew her knew that she was a professional female imp, and she was a bit tsundere. Those who didn't would probably think she was completely sick and extremely uncomfortable.

If Lin En hadn't come in at this time, Nicole would probably still pay attention to Eunice, but as soon as he appeared, Nicole's eyes suddenly changed. She stared at Lin En and shouted fiercely:

"Get out! This is not the place for you!!"

There was no doubt that Nicole's hatred for him had not diminished in the slightest.

Although there were reasons for it, it is a fact that Nicole's mother and brother died at his hands.

If Eunice was also unconscious like Cecilia, Lin En would have to have a good talk with Nicole. But since the little girl was fine, Lin En simply skipped Nicole and looked at Eunice.

"Is Cecilia okay?"

He was originally planning to leave after getting a brief understanding of the situation, but...

"Can't you hear me talking to you?!" Eunice said to Nicole angrily.

Nicole raised her voice even more when she heard this: "Get out, Lynn Noel! You devil! If you don't get out, I'll kill you!!"

"..."

Lin En glanced at Cecilia helplessly, then searched around a bit. To save time, he could only say, "...Forget it, Eunice, I have something to ask you. Please come out for a moment. I have to leave after you finish asking."

After saying that, without waiting for the matter to continue, he turned around and walked outside.

It wasn't that he was afraid of Nicole's attack, but mainly because he had indeed killed the other party's mother and brother, so it was natural that he would be hated. He was the one who was guilty.

But the funny thing is that even so, Nicole ignored Eunice, and the angry little girl ran out without even wearing shoes.

"Oh my god, I'm so pissed! How dare that little bitch ignore me...! What a shame! What a shame!!"

Looking at the cute little girl's angry expression, Lin En couldn't help but tease her, "That's really unusual. Miss Eunice, who is loved by everyone, would actually take the initiative to get to know someone."

"Tsk!" The little girl spat. "You know shit! A idiot is a idiot. Don't you realize there's something wrong with that kid?!"

"Eh? Anything wrong?"

"Humph! You're such a filthy pervert, you didn't even notice something like this!"

"I do not understand."

"Rake off your ears, and I will tell you reluctantly!"

"what…"

To be honest, Lin En felt that the little loli was just playing a prank.

But if it was just a prank by a little loli, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing...

Lin En obediently tilted his head down. He had already prepared himself mentally to be fooled by the other party, but the little Loli actually revealed a very subtle message to him!

"What...! Are you...are you sure?!" Lynn's face showed a strange and unbelievable expression.

"Ha! Do you think I have any reason to lie to you? Humph, I won't allow you to question me!!"

"No, I'm just a little shocked."

"Oh! I see... That's a bit shocking to me. You said she's even smaller than me. Could she really handle something like that?"
